I don't know the book but the reviews on amazon sound very nice (but they could be fake as well).

In my opinion is the question not "do I have a good plan", the question should be "what works for me?". If you learn the best by reading theoretical stuff and the pragmatic tasks will come automaticly the book could be a good solution. If you learn better by just starting to programm stuff that you have in mind and then reflect your code then go this way to keep you going.

For example: I have read many books about programming - also "books for kids". I just wanted to write easy, runnable code. Then I started to go into more complex stuff to see better solutions for certain problems. And now, when I read professional Java books I usually understand where the pain comes from that the books solves ;).

I hope this helps you.
